Hybrid and sneezing

I have been trying the hybrid for two weeks and almost every night within an hour I start sneezing very badly, I always sneeze regardless what mask I wear but it is much worse with the hybrid. I clean the hybrid no different than the other masks so that is not the problem, any ideas?

Do you use the white filter on your machine?
How often do you change the filters?

Sneezing in a mask.....haven't had that pleasure yet!

I clean and replace all the filters on a regular basis, I also use the white filters.
I sneeze and have a runny nose all the time, it's just worse now that I had septoplasty and turbinectomies surgery it just gets worse with the hybrid than with the swift or other full face masks.

Back when I used a goodnight cpap machine I sneezed like mad for up to 5 minutes. It, too , was probably the filter. When I got a new machine, it stopped. I thought it was the new smell (like plastic) of my mask or something...could never figure it out. It wasn't the mask because the 3 month replacement smelled, too , and I never sneezed from it.

I think I am getting enough humidity but I will kick it up a notch and see what happens.
